Addendum to Cultures of the States: Statistical Information About
Each of the 50 States for Lawmakers, Students, Teachers, and
Interested Citizens is a supplement to Cultures of the States: A
Handbook on the Effectiveness of State Governments that was
published by Scarecrow Press, Inc., Lanham, Maryland, and Oxford in
2003. Addendum includes approximately 600 new tables, in addition
to the 700 tables published originally in the Cultures book, each
of which is presented as a ranking of the states on factors such as
death rates by cause, teenager''s problems, per capita income,
taxes paid to various levels of government, population, voting,
educational achievement, educational attainment, drug and alcohol
abuse, juvenile delinquency, birth weights, incarceration rates,
expenditures for incarcerated prisoners, and the like. The purpose
of this book is to provide interested persons with information that
relates directly to public policy. Developing appropriate and
effective public policy requires current statistical information
about each state, and how that statistical information has changed
over time. This book includes diverse information in a standardized
format (i.e., rankings of the states) that will enable both
researchers and policymakers in any state to compare that state
with any other state on hundreds of variables that relate directly
to implementation and effectiveness of public policy decisions. And
all of this statistical information is available from the senior
author on a compact disk in SPSS format.
